About Us
Canoeing and kayaking Ohio's rivers has been a passion of mine and my families for many years. We have been all over the state taking river trips as long as 17 miles (overnight) with our children. There is no better way to spend quality family time together than being in a canoe floating down a river taking in all the wildlife and scenery.
Our mission, from the beginning, has been to get families outdoors to spend quality time together and help them create memories that will last a lifetime!
With no option for a kayak or canoe livery in in our home towns of Port Clinton and Oak Harbor Ohio we wanted to bring the ability to kayak and canoe where we live and be able to share our passion with other people.
The Portage River is right in our backyard and we have been kayaking it for more than a 2 decades now. We would rarely see another kayaker, if ever, when we were out on our adventures on the Portage! We wanted to change that and be able to share our passion with other people and have been working around the clock ever since we opened the business to do just that.
Heading in to our 9th season we are extremely excited to see what the future holds! We have been family run and operated since the beginning and always will be. On any given day you will be able to speak to my wife or I personally. We look forward to serving you!

We'll See You On The River,
